All, I watched Larry Craig yesterday, and what he proposed was to strenghten the penalties if AP ammo is used, to counter T. Kennedy's proposal to let the Justice Dept determine what AP ammo is. You do know where J. Reno and her ilk would take that. Semper Fi

If you ask me, we should at least be saying "NO AMENDMENTS, PERIOD" or proposing amendments that gut existing bogus law, not buying into the lefty idea that AP ammo is regulateable in the first place and then further buying into the phoney premise that what constitutes AP is negotiable.

Yes, a .22 Short would be classified as Armor Piercing by Janet Reno and her ilk.

You cannot give the government one silly little millimeter of latitude to interpret anything -- it opens the door wide open to abuse.

As I pointed out a couple of posts ago, the Consumer Product Safety Commission under Clinton tried to shut down Daisy BB Gun comapny.

Rather than propose further Amendment to the Kennedy Ammo Ban Amendment, Craig should have spoken out vociferously agaisnt the idocy of the proposal itself as well as identify the potential for abuse by leaving the designation of what constitutes AP to an uninformed, arbitrary future AG with an anti-gun agenda.

And, the NRA has not addressed any of Craig's actions on their NRA-ILA web site with ANY updates today.

I think the NRA is embarrassed by their Director's action with regard to their intent for S. 1805 to be a "clean bill".
